Nicknames (reprise)

So pretty bored here at work and I was thinking that since "the Big Hurt" has left us I refer to him as "T-Bone" I have no idea why but its just something my head made up.

 

If you could change any former or present White Sox player nickname what would it be?

(here is your chance to take it out of Hawk's hands)

 

 

 

Edit: Wow, I used the wrong spelling of the word bored...

Buehrle is "The Beaver" or "Beave" Look at him...plus he seems to have the Cleaver "Aw shucks" mentality.

 

Swing Away Uribe (more last year than this one)

 

Jim Thome- "Kalu Kalay" Just sounds like something he'd say after he hits a dinger.

 

Cabrera-"leprosy" due to his previous bad attitude and becasue of his effing face...what's up with that? why does his face look like that? He has leprosy.

 

Adam Rusell "yarp" reminds me of the guy that says Yarp in Hot Fuzz.

Now, bear in mind that these are stupid and I only say them at home cuz my wife knows I'm dumb already:

 

Thome = Neat (his favorite descriptive term for things he likes)

 

Uribe = Pot Smoker (he has that stoner look on his face)

 

Quentin = QUIH-IH (like "OH NO YOU DIH-IH!")

 

Dye = Main (shortened his name and also my "main man")

Pop up Paulie for his massive amount of pop ups

 

I called Podsednik "El ScoPo" after the notorious "el Guapo" from Three Amigos

 

 

See, I think of it more as "Joey Pop-Out" but thats just me
